Notability is not established. Individual has only written one, extremely obscure book. The article's author User:Dellafrench has only written about him and his book, which suggests a conflict of interest or at least a desire to promote an unknown author.

Keep. Enough coverage of his work exists to warrant an article about him. High Country News [1] or [2]; American Indian Quarterly [3]; Star Tribune [4]; Publishers Weekly [5]; Kirkus Reviews [6] (this appears to be a legitimate Kirkus review and not the pay for play "Kirkus Indie" variety); Iowa Public Radio [7](audio); World Literature Today [8] (brief review by a distinguished reviewer, Joy Harjo); a discussion of one of his stories in an academic book published by University of Oklahoma Press [9]. --Arxiloxos (talk) 16:32, 28 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - per points made by Arxiloxos and the awards / fellowship/ and recognition he has received.--CaroleHenson (talk) 09:36, 5 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know if there is a "strong keep", but since the decision of the Cheyenne Madonna deletion discussion was to merge the book in with the author's article, I think that there's more reason to keep this article.--CaroleHenson (talk) 01:41, 6 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Sufficient notability established by winning the O. Henry Award. Joyous! | Talk 11:59, 9 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
